Leatherbound.me Will Help You With Ebook Buying Decisions by Comparing Their Prices in Kindle, iBookstore and Nook Markets

2 min read,

If you watched the Back to the Future movies, you know that in the year 2015 people had hoverboards instead of skateboards. They also had classic, paper books. Well, the reality is slightly different and instead of hoverboards, we now have ebook readers.

It’s a great piece of today’s technology, where you don’t have to buy books that will just sit on your shelves. You can buy thousands of digital books and keep them in one single device instead. The problem is that you have several ebook markets and you need to browse them, all in order to discover the lowest price possible. Leatherbound.me can help you with that.

Digital Bookworms

Leatherbound.me is a free web application (with its iOS app as well) that will search the top three ebook markets; Kindle, iBookstore and Nook, and compare their prices for a title you’re looking for. You can actually use Leatherbound.me to check if the book you want is even available in one of the bookstores.

Searching for ebooks has never been easier

The interface of the application is simple and designed like an open book; you just need to enter a title or an author and instant search will start crawling through the database. After a few seconds you’ll have a link to the book and a price tag with it.

Simple is… Simple

Leatherbound.me is a nice example of an application that does only what it needs to do, nothing more, and nothing less. It was made by 4 developers during one weekend as part of the Rails Rumble competition.

Andrew Dumont says that they plan to add movies and music into their database, so you might soon use Leatherbound.me to search for those as well.
